As part of the City’s new organizational structure that launched in July 2024, a deputy City administrator oversees the Public Safety Service Area, including Portland Police, Portland Fire & Rescue, Bureau of Emergency Communications, and Bureau of Emergency Management. The Office of Public Safety DCA contains several key Community Safety programs to centralize the way the City tackles livability and safety issues, including the Office of Violence Prevention, the Portland Ceasefire Program and Portland Street Response. 619

City of Portland Fiscal Year 2026-27 Proposed Budget Summary of Budget Decisions • Continue current service level funding for Ceasefire, existing staffing, contracts, and coordination capacity. (+$6.3M, 1 FTE) • Continue current service level funding for Office of Violence Prevention program grants and engagement with the community. (+$1.4M) • Continue current service level funding for Focused Intervention Team Community Oversight Group, extending one limited term FTE who supports the program. (+$230k, 1 FTE) • Eliminate four aftercare team positions, reducing PSR's capacity to respond to 911 calls for mental health crises. People experiencing mental health crises, homelessness, or other circumstances that generate PSR calls are most likely to be affected by reduced capacity. (-$659k, -4 FTE) • Reduce the level of funding for Ceasefire and the Office of Violence Prevention’s gun violence reduction activities. This would hinder the programs' ability to coordinate services for people with high needs and also creates additional workload for employees. (-$1M) • Eliminate one Ceasefire position, reducing the team's capacity to coordinate outreach, assessments, and referrals for individuals at highest risk of gun violence. (-$189k, -1 FTE) • Reduce discretionary operating budgets for engagement for the Office of Violence Prevention and Ceasefire. (-$162k) 620
